I have just discarded and revived and discarded three versions of a crucial plot point for the fic I'm working on and I'm not happy with any of them. I wrote the first part for the second one (900 words) before the third one popped into my head, but it's still far from perfect. Why must plot be so difficult?

Since writing that, I've changed the last scenario around again. It's staying that way because it's the best one I've come up with. Aargh!

In other news, I've finally opened a Facebook account because my RL friends kept begging me to and I am going to need it to stay in contact with them once I leave, which is only a month from now. I feel a little sad about that. I'm sure I'll be feeling a lot sadder in the coming weeks. But... London! Must focus on the awesomeness that is London. Which I am a little obsessively. Anyway, I'm trying to learn how to navigate this new Facebook thing, which is completely different from LJ, so it's a tad confusing. There are so many things flashing at me all at once. I'm sure I'll find my way around in a week or so, but I'm always so lost when I come across something new. Which is why I'm back here at LJ right now, which I like a lot. Too much. *is hopelessly addicted*

ETA: I almost broke my mobile. It fell to the floor as I was getting out of the car, which it's done dozens of times, but this time the screen went black! I tried turning it off and on a couple of times, but still nothing. Finally, I took the battery out and now it works. For now. *watches phone*

I woke up in a good mood today. Like, a really good mood. The only reason I got out of bed was because it was noon already, but I had the nicest, sleepy buzz. It remained throughout a couple of little annoyances, but has finally been bested by a stomachache. Damn.

I also just discovered that one of the scenes of the OT3 fic was somehow not saved when I put the fic in my flash drive. Now I don't trust the program I used to write it (it was free, anyway, but it was working so well), so I'm probably gonna have to pay for one, which I don't want to do, but there's no way I can do this on Word. I have 54,000 with chapters and sub-chapters and it's just madness. At least the scene I lost wasn't briliant or anything. It was just a connector scene, but important all the same, so I'm going to have to do it again. *sigh*

In other news, I started watching Dr. Who yesterday. Yeah, I know I said I was going to watch Dexter, but I already had Dr. Who in my Netflix queue, so what the hell. I'm not sure about it yet. I don't usually like "family oriented" kinda stuff. It's almost a little too cheesy for me, but I love Christopher Eccleston, so we'll see.
